Chapter 433 The Night Before the Battle
Liu Cheng, who was originally discussing work with Ryan, thought he had another conflict with the local people when he heard Fu Yan's words.
He was so frightened that he pulled Fu Yan and ran over without even asking.
When he arrived at the dinner preparation site, Liu Cheng looked around and found nothing unusual.
So Liu Cheng asked Yan:
"Lao Fu, what do you want me to see?
What's wrong? "
Fu Yan raised his hand, pointed at the ingredients being processed by the people of Black Rock City, and said:
"Look at what they've got to eat.
How can our people put these foods in their mouths? "
When Liu Cheng heard this, it turned out that there was not another conflict, but because of the food issue.
The originally tense nerves also relaxed.
"You should make it clear, it will make me panic for nothing."
Fu Yan replied innocently:
"No, Brother Cheng, how can you rely on me for this matter?
You didn't ask me before. "
Liu Cheng thought about it, and then looked carefully at the ingredients that the people of Black Rock City were processing.
It didn't matter if he didn't look at it. He felt a little nauseous at the sight.
I saw the people of Black Rock City cutting up the corpses of various alien creatures.
Just deal with the corpses of alien creatures. After all, some alien creatures are not poisonous and can be eaten.
Even some organs in their bodies have certain medicinal value.
However, these corpses were obviously not frozen, and they should be the alien creatures that were killed in the attack on Black Rock City ten days ago.
Some of the bodies of alien creatures have rotted away.
The people of Black Rock City are still using knives to carefully remove the maggots bit by bit.
Liu Cheng stepped forward and asked a commoner who was dealing with the corpses of alien creatures:
“These corpses are already rotting, and you still want to eat them??”
The man raised his head when he heard the words. When he saw that the person who asked him was Liu Cheng, he explained to him:
“I’m sorry, you also know the situation in Black Rock City.
Our interstellar trade is blocked, and we usually don’t have any decent food. We can only eat the meat of these alien creatures to satisfy our hunger.
This is already the freshest cut of meat we have ever picked. "
After the common man finished speaking, he realized that the content of his words did not sound right.
He, who was already embarrassed, looked even more embarrassed.
Liu Cheng and Fu Yan both thought, "Good guy, I am really a good guy."
Just the freshest cuts of meat are already infested with maggots.
What do the people of Black Rock City usually eat? ? ?
In this way, the seemingly ordinary meal Wu Sheng entertained them last time was already considered a feast in Black Rock City.
Liu Cheng and Fu Yan's eyes twitched.
But looking at the seriousness with which the other party dealt with the maggots, one could feel that the people of Black Rock City really respected them.
So Liu Cheng greeted everyone:
"Everyone stop what you are doing and listen to me!"
When everyone present heard this, they all looked towards Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng simply stood on the table and said to everyone:
"You just need to prepare the venue layout. All the ingredients and drinks will be provided by our Aocheng Group!"
Hearing this, the people of Black Rock City also felt ashamed of their money.
It’s not that they don’t want to have a full banquet.
Mainly due to the conditions in Black Rock City, even if they are first- and second-level superpowers, they cannot make a dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
You can't go to the palace and steal eggs, right?
After persuading everyone to take back all the meat of the alien creatures, Liu Cheng returned to find Ryan and told what he had just seen.
Ryan nodded and said:
"Okay, Boss Tucheng, I'll have people move the food over in a moment."
Liu Cheng was a little worried about the food problem later, so he asked:
"How long will the food we brought this time last?"
Ryan replied:
“If we, the people of Aocheng Group, could only eat it ourselves, we would have no problem eating it for a year and a half.
However, if it were distributed to all the people in Black Rock City, it would not be enough for a few days. "
Liu Cheng had no intention of distributing supplies to everyone in Black Rock City.
So he nodded and felt relieved.
In the evening, many people from Black Rock City came, about a thousand people.
Most of them are leaders of a community's autonomous association and representatives elected by some residents.
It's not that other people don't want to come.
But after hearing that the food and drinks at the welcome party were all provided by Aocheng Group, they were a little embarrassed to eat and drink.
So we controlled the number of people coming.
After King Wu Sheng heard about the welcome party, he also sent several officials to attend on his behalf.
If it weren't for his identity, Wu Sheng would actually like to come in person.
In his heart, he is still the kind of person who likes to integrate with the people and enjoy themselves with them.
But out of a sense of duty, he wanted to maintain the dignified image of king and bishop.
Song Ziming also arrived with people from the Veterans Alliance.
But one-third of the people are known.
There was going to be a battle tomorrow, and many of them were in combat positions ready.
I looked at the barbecue steaks on the table that I hadn’t seen in two or three years, as well as beer and other drinks.
Whether it was the people of Black Rock City or the people of the Veterans Alliance, their saliva flowed unconsciously.
The common people were a little better. In order not to appear too rude, they all wiped the saliva from the corners of their mouths.
On the contrary, Song Ziming's men were more direct.
They were all retired soldiers. While strictly abiding by the discipline, most of them were bold and unrestrained.
Many strong men slammed the table and shouted loudly:
"I can't stand it anymore. I won't pretend anymore.
I'll start eating now!"
After that, the strong man grabbed the steaming roast beef with a mechanical arm and started eating it.
The beef was roasted on the outside and tender on the inside, and the juice flowed from the corners of the strong man's mouth. Seeing this, everyone didn't want to continue pretending to be reserved.
So they picked up their knives, forks and chopsticks and started eating.
Everyone clinked glasses while eating, and the atmosphere was very pleasant.
After seeing this, Liu Cheng asked Song Ziming:
"Isn't the food of the Veterans' Alliance good?"
Song Ziming nodded and said:
"Yes, although we have canned food, the quantity is limited and we have eaten it all.
These days, our soldiers, like the people of Black Stone City, are eating meat from alien creatures."
Liu Cheng was a little shocked when he heard this.
You know, when they lived in the camp of the Veterans' Alliance, they all ate canned food.
He thought that the veterans ate the same as them.
It turned out that the few remaining supplies were given to them.
In the second half of the dinner, everyone ate and drank well and talked a lot about each other.
The relationship quickly became close.
Song Ziming said to Liu Cheng:
"You see, everyone has become close.
When we fight tomorrow, everyone will definitely cooperate actively."
Liu Cheng nodded. He felt very lucky to have Song Ziming and Augustine, two teachers who taught him.
